12. Two young soldiers obviously new in-country overheard by me on a bus in Germany:

.
.
.
.
A: You were doing so well with her... what HAPPENED?
.
.
B: I dunno. I tried a little German on her -- called her "My little sweetheart" and
she got up and left.
.
.
A: Man, do I ever need to know how to say that. What is it?!?!?!?
.
.
B: Meine kleine scheissie.
.
.
.
.
.
Note: "Schatzie" is "sweetie" --- "Scheissie" is a close approximation of "shit".

No sense of humor... I thought it was adorable.
